Abstract:
We introduce a bootstrap approach for analyzing conformal line defects in large N Chern-Simons matter theories within conformal field theory frameworks. We base our method on three assumptions: conformal invariance, large N factorization, and the operator spectrum on the line. Our analysis involves solving the one-dimensional CFT on the line defect and evaluating its expectation value via an expansion around a straight line. While straight-line symmetry is insufficient for a complete solution, imposing symmetry constraints along a curved line yields a unique and solvable functional bootstrap constraint.
